Samios boxing troupe from Greece 1920s in Sydney

looking for info on a boxing troupe from Greece to Australia in about 1920s. SAMIOS was one of the fighters or maybe even a manager.

do not know his first name but he came to Australia to do boxing shows and married a Sydney girl and they had 3 children. They separated later and I believe he ran a cafe or restaurant on the harbour. I understand he died after living his later life in an old people’s home in Sydney.

one of the children was my dad and I am trying to trace his birth father. My dad Keith is now dead so cannot ask him.

any snippets or clues would be helpful.
